Translation as foreclosure
Negation is an enigmatic function of translation that has rarely been investigated. Instead of delivering the original text to the new language, translation also negates the incompatible in order to assert the validity of a target text by preventing access to the original. This form of negation is scrutinised in this article as an act of ‘foreclosure’, a term originated by Jacques Lacan and later adopted by Gayatri Chakravarty Spivak to describe …
Reflective translator training in Thailand

Drawing on Constructive Developmental Theory (CDT) as the guiding framework, the research employed a constructivist grounded approach to analyze data generated through Subject–Object Interviews with translator trainers.

Philippine philippine, or the Tropics in Cixous’s Dreaming True
Hélène Cixous’s oneiric ideation of the philippine (twin almond)—and by extension, her text Philippines (2009/2011)—primarily evokes love, or that force of attraction between two beings in which one can never say where each begins or ends.

When translating the novels they disagree with, the translators’ fidelity to the source text, as well as the reliability of the translation, would natur…
The Author in Edward Said’s Orientalism
Edward W. Said’s Orientalism has long been celebrated for its ground-breaking analysis of the encounters between Western Orientalists and the Orient as a form of ‘othering’ representation. The success, undeniably, owes much to the use of Foucauldian discourse as a core methodology in Said’s theorisation of Orientalism which allows Said to refer to the massive corpus of Orientalist writings as a form of Orientalist discourse and a representation o…
Trauma, Repressed Memory, and the Question of ‘Authenticity’
Trauma and the repressed memory of Jewish Holocaust survivors and African- American slaves are issues that require the notion of ‘authenticity’ in fictional representation. The Zionist discourse demands that Holocaust fictions be written by true witnesses of the genocide and with respectful seriousness, for the Holocaust is a sacred, incomparable phenomenon in Jewish history. In the same manner, the Black American narrative needs authenticity to …
